+    This week is a new School of Code cohort, and I'm excited to be mentoring again.
+---
+
+Tomorrow is the first day of cohort 17 of School of Code - a free 16-week software development bootcamp - and I'm happy to be mentoring a student again for my third time.
+
+I also mentored the winning team at a hack day event in January and [spoke at the TechConnect meetup][0] last year.
+
+Last week, I spoke with George Gordon - a recent School of Code graduate who I met at the hack day and later at another meetup I was speaking at.
+
+We discussed his experience with coding bootcamps, getting into the software industry and involved with community events and how he found his first Developer job!
+
+It will be released soon on [the Beyond Blocks podcast page][1].
